HMAFAPW01295: Charming and Economical

This artist rendering courtesy of Hanley Wood Home Plans shows House of the Week HMAFAPW01295. Corner quoins and a keystone arch add detail to the traditional brick exterior of this small home.

Charming and economical to build, this 1,319-square-foot brick design, Plan HMAFAPW01295 from Homeplans.com, is ideal for first-time homeowners, retired couples, or anyone who would enjoy an affordable, easier-to-maintain home.

Just because it's smaller, though, doesn't mean it's not full of special details and amenities. Choosing the unfinished basement offers the opportunity to double the space of this one-story home.

A tiled foyer leads past the open-rail basement stairs (choose a crawlspace foundation instead, if desired) to a vaulted great room, warmed by a gas fireplace.

An island adds extra prep space in the nearby L-shaped kitchen, which overlooks the rear deck.

Sleeping quarters are to the right, and include the master suite with its double closets and private bathroom, and two family bedrooms that share another full bath. Skylights bring natural illumination to both bathrooms.

The two-car garage loads in front, making this a great choice for a narrow lot.
